Brunch Beat: Deals and yummy meals

The deal of the day comes to us from Groupon, where you can get a deluxe brunch for two for $19 at Hype Lounge (243 E. 14th St.). The offer includes two entrées, two fruit salads and four drinks (two/person). Hype, which has a bar-type atmosphere and some outdoor seating, serves traditional brunch dishes like omelets, French toast and pancakes.

Jim Fahey’s Co. (230 Ninth Ave.), an upscale Chelsea pizzeria, is now offering brunch on Sundays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Nibble on two different pies, bread pudding French toast, pork and beans, frisee aux lardons, or egg toast, while sipping on one of their signature brunch cocktails — Co. Sparkler is a mix of prosecco and cherry vanilla! We’ve walked by Co. many times, and it’s always packed! A good sign, but be aware when planning brunch at the hotspot.
